L-1A Dismissed — Software Solutions (2019): did not establish the beneficiary was employed abroad
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed abroad primarily in a managerial capacity. The Director concluded the record did not prove the beneficiary's role was managerial, noting that the duties appeared to be primarily performing tasks necessary to provide a service. Inconsistencies regarding the beneficiary's job titles and the petitioner's changing description of duties between the initial petition and the RFE response further weakened the case.
